Oatmeal Cookie Pancakes

I wanted something sweet for dinner and it had been awhile since I made pancakes. I wanted something different, though and found this recipe online. These were so good!! I omitted the walnuts but might add chocolate chips next time.

Oatmeal Cookie Pancakes
from Rachael Ray
Ingredients
1/2 cup old fashioned oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup, chopped walnuts
1/3 cup sour cream
1/3 cup whole milk (I used skim)
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 really ripe bananas, mashed
1/3 cup raisins
1/4 stick butter, plus additional 1-2 TBSP for buttering skillet
Maple syrup or honey, for drizzling

Directions
1. Mix dry ingredients, the first 7, in a bowl.
2. In a another bowl, mix the wet ingredients, the next 4.
3. Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined, then fold in the mashed up bananas and the raisins.
4. Stir in the melted butter.
5. Heat a griddle over medium heat and brush with additional melted butter.
6. Cook pancakes, each about 1/3 cup, until bubbles form on the top, then turn.
7. Cakes will cook in about 2 minutes on each side. Keep pancakes tented with foil as they come off the griddle to keep them hot.
8. Serve with drizzled honey or maple syrup over the top.

This is a thin batter, just keep that in mind when pouring and spacing.
